Length‐weight relationships (LWRs) and length‐length relationships (LLRs) were evaluated for three endemic fish species sampled from the lower Yalong River and its biggest tributary (the Anning River), in China. Specimens were captured using set gillnet (mesh size 4 cm) and backpack electro‐fishing (power output 400 W, depth fished 1 m, area covered 3 m 2 ) from June to July 2018. LWRs and LLRs are presented for the following species ( Sinogastromyzon sichangensis , Micropercops swinhonis and Percocypris pingi ).
